Saddam is dead, Long live Saddam

Saddam is dead.
But his legacy is alive and kicking.
A newborn needs milk to survive.

Like life for a newborn, the US, mother of all newborns for the last 62 years is running out of milk.
Yes!
Alas , the teats of the Statue of Liberty are sagging, her life giving juice milked to the point of perpetual dryness, her age and her paranoid schitzophrenic behavior making her a candidate for a nursing home.
Until this day the United States is the nursing home.
Now the nurse is looking like she needs a nursing home.
She runs to China with hands clasped in prayer that she might have some milk for her old and infants.
For she has poured out treasures invaluable on the world, and forgiven their debts. Yet she has gone beyond giving the money to the world, now she employs the world and supports a government foreign to her own Constitution.
The United Nations.
So the mother that feeds Iraq is old, her milk drying up.
Her feeble attempts at instituting a government dashed as Saddam dangled from the gallows pole.
Now the infant will be left to itself, and it will be torn in three by its own people.
Now the parts will live for they will get milk locally from their neighbors.
Those parts will fight with each other , and will be backed by their neighbors.

The Sunni baathist party will produce another Saddam. Will find help from its baathist neighbor Syria.
The Shiites have Moktada al Sadr whose followers hung Saddam for killing Moktadas dad. He is finding milk from Shitte Iran.
The Kurdish north is flying its own flag already . They will be strengthened by the neighboring Kurdish communites, in Turkey and Iran.
How the powers that be will manage this will be interesting.
For the nurse needs a rest, her coffers are empty and the bill collector has an axe in his hands.
